i'm late but i'm here!

Ultimate Blog Party 2009

Welcome to UBP Blogger #1146! I'm a tad late but that is not at all uncommon in my life! If I want to be anywhere on time I have to pretend it starts 15 minutes before it actually starts, then I can usually get there by the actual time it starts.

My former blog is Procrastination...and then some. I took a 6 month break a just started back up a few weeks ago, but I imported all my PATS posts.

Anyhoo, I'm an almost (13 more days) 25-yr-old with 2 beautiful kids and a cleany husband of 4.5 years. Cleanie + Messie = not so messy. I usually go by Ali Blogger but I'll let you in on a little secret and tell you my real name, which is...shhhhhhh...wait for it....Brooke. I refer to 5-yr-old son as Otter and 2-yr-old daughter as Raven. Otter is in remission from a rare case of epilepsy which is being treated with diet. Read his story here.

I'm from a very small town.
Nearest Wal-Mart: 1 hour away.
Nearest mall: 1.5 hours away.
Nearest Target: 3 hours away.
Needless to say, I do lots of shopping online. I love my small town but it would be nice to go out to Olive Garden (4 hours away) more than once a year.

I'm a TV addict.
Desperate Housewives
One Tree Hill
House (sometimes)
90210
Grey's Anatomy
Private Practice
Army Wives
The Bachelor

I have my elementary teaching degree but I'm currently teaching preschool which I love a lot more than I thought I would.

Currently working on baby #3.

So go ahead and take a look around. I'm going to be having a giveaway coming up in the next few weeks so please come back. Thanks for stopping by and have fun at the party.

OMGoodness... I don't think I could handle living 4 hours (!!!) from the closest Target! How do you do it, woman?!

It's so nice to meet you! My birthday is in 13 more days! And I know what it feels like to live an hour away from Wal-mart! I love my small town! Miss it much! Hope to see you at my blog party!

WOW, we are about 30 min from any decent stores, I can't imagine HOURS! Nice to meet you at the blog party! We watch a lot of the same TV shows too, thankfully we have DVR so we don't miss them!

Glad I stumbled upon your blog through UBP! I'm sorry to hear that you're 3 hours from Target, as they are currently serving as my version of a crack addiction, but there's target.com, so I know you'll survive...LOL. Great to e-meet you. Oh, and I've been affected by epilepsy (my BFF has it), and I'm happy to see that Otter's in remission; I'll keep your family in my prayers.

Good luck with #3-took me a good 3 years before we got ours. NOw we're working on #4. Sending you all the prayers you need so that this happens for you soon. AMen about the pregnancy tests-isn't it funny how much you spend on those when you are so anxious?
